Menu Plan Monday ~ Week of 8/2

This coming week is filled with lots of little chores that need to get done around the house for both Eric and myself. It's not going to be overly busy though, so we're looking to spending more time outside. It's supposed to finally be hot here, so maybe we'll even get a chance to break out the slip'n'slide that we've been waiting to use all summer.

This weekend is our favorite summer weekend of all - the art festival hits our downtown Main Street area. We look forward to this event every summer. We had a great time last year and fully expect another great time now. Eric and I are thinking of seeing if my in-laws can baby-sit on Saturday night so that we can go walk around there for a few hours by ourselves and attend one of the free concerts. Because of that our weekend meals are up in the air right now. But here;s what we do have planned.

Breakfast

• M - Oatmeal Mudslide Smoothies (I sampled one of these at BlogHer and it was fantastic! It may not be the healthiest breakfast option out there, but I know it will be a hit.), Strawberries

• Th - Carrot muffins with cream cheese frosting
• F - Apple spice oatmeal
• S - Crepes with mixed berry sauce
